Interesting to see the advances in battery technology now tacking place. I’m sure the 750 miles is probably nearer 500/600 for every day but it does show the direction of travel and should help remove “range anxiety“

I think it’s fundamental change really needed in owners than trying to make big battery cars with huge range.

You basically set off from your house with a full “tank” each time. It’s like having a personal petrol station on your property. Rare that someone does 500 miles + in one day.

It’s inconvenient for a petrol car to have small range as you have to fill up in places out of the way.

We were considering getting a used electric car with 90 mile range. Only a handful of journeys would require some thought to complete in a year.
